Now that's all for the rant

After getting their copies of Killzone 2 early at their local gameStop, 26 Philadelphians were confused when the multiplayer wasn't working. I wonder why....
So now GameStop is for peoples' not realizing that when you get a game early, most likely the servers won't be up funtil the launch date.
Apparantly what GameStop has going on is, when people bring in their copies of Killzone to replace it, the employees will tell them that they have no more new copies, and that since the game has been opened, all they can do it trade it in.
Now, being an employee of GameStop myself, I'm probably going to be called hyporcytical for saying that GameStop is a ripoff when I work from them. But c'mon, this is ridiculous. Granted these people were out of it when they just didn't wait a few more days for the actualy launch date, but the employees at the store could have told them to do that instead of taking them in the rear.
People are now at least $30 short because they either traded in the game and got their money back, or traded it in and bought another new copy. Either situation sucks, because it just shows how businees can corrupt people into being lying, or information holding profit junkies.
I'm not blaming the employees too much, because I know from experience (8 hours a week of work, woohoo....) how competative the higher-ups make everyone else. The lower sales you get, the lower reservations you get etc., the less hours you work, which leads to less money to pay bills.
I feel bad for all those people who sold their games back to GameStop, but just consider it a lesson learned. Now that's all for the rant!
